I have now realized that "Inv" works like Caps Lock, in Inv mode there is an
alternate button layout.
So these tables for buttons in statistical and trigonometric mode as well as
the "Single Key Accelerators" table have to be rewritten completly.

What I mean with missing "<" (less than) accellerator is:
Press Ctrl and you see the ">" (greater than) on the "Rsh" key, but nothing
on the "Lsh" key. But the "<" (less than) key works here as shift left, it is
just not displayed.

OK, I will remove these references.
This example in the doc is wrong:
"Inv Lsh right shifts the value (performs an integer divide by 2) n times.
16 Inv Lsh 2 = gives 4 (16 divided by 2 twice).
16.999 Inv Lsh 2 = also gives 4."
It has to be changed to:
"Rsh right shifts the value (performs an integer divide by 2) n times.
16 Rsh 2 = gives 4 (16 divided by 2 twice).
16.999 Rsh 2 = also gives 4."
